Every following flush, you will get less and less mushrooms, but much bigger size compared to the first flush. This will continue to happen until your cake/casing is exhausted.

Another cause of it are the big mushrooms themselves. If you have one or two mushrooms that are a lot bigger, or are growing much faster than others, pick them early off.

Mushrooms that are growing much bigger and faster than the others (as your pic looks) could affect yield as well. They suck up a lot of nutes stopping other mushies from growing. You may also notice other mushies growing slower when you have a few really big mushrooms.

Anything beyond first flush, and you'll see more energy concentrated into fewer mushrooms than the first flush. While you get less mushrooms count wise, it seems to make up for things with individual weight. That's why you see the real monsters in later successive flushes.

--------------------To find a place to live between the negatives and positives.

well, both, but you can't just add nutes to a casing....you can use a spent one to spawn to something else like horse shit, but you can't just add nutes to it....doesn't work that way because of the different stages of growing.

Once your casing is in the fruiting stage, vegitative growth stops. If that the case heheh everyone would have to have one casing for life.....just inject some nutes to it and yer set, that would be awesome, but it doesn't work that way.

Thanks for the info, this is my first 2nd flush ... I have a bunch of other casings and a couple bulk casings so I think i'm going to see how big I can get these ... they are 2x the size they were in this pic. I'll post the final product.
